Looking for post-ballot plans? Join us at the Free Press News Café tonight for drinks, debate and analysis as the federal election draws to a close.

Our multimedia team will be broadcasting live starting at 8 p.m., sharing updates on the tightest races from a team of journalists around Winnipeg. For those watching from home, the show will be broadcast live on this website.

However, federal elections law prohibits us –and everyone else — from publishing or transmitting the results – official or otherwise – from any ridings until all polling stations across the country have closed. So you’ll have to wait until 9 p.m. to see results on our site, or in our broadcast.

The main page of winnipegfreepress.com will transform at around 7 p.m. as we cover the federal election live from the News Cafe. We will have live video, live chat, dynamic, real-time results, and all of the stories from Manitoba and across Canada as they happen. Join us at the Cafe at 237 McDermot Ave. or online to interact.

After 9 p.m. we’ll be analyzing the numbers with columnists, election-watchers and pundits at the café. We’ll also have a breakdown of up-to-the-minute riding results on this site as the ballots are counted in the country’s 308 ridings.
